Hey Pandas, What Common Thing Do You Appreciate More Since The Pandemic? (Closed)

Simple answer: my foster parents. They have done so much to keep me and my foster brothers safe. they are adopting me and my foster brothers. adoption should be finalized by late of this month early june.

Having a job.

My dog. Did not even need to think about my answer. He's always happy, always up for a walk. He's kept us all grounded and sane.

Alone time. Being able to have the house to myself for a few hours while the rest of the family goes on a road trip or out to eat at a restaurant.

Hugs

Silence. It's really hard to get some when everyone is always home. Neighbours either loudly f*****g or yelling at each other like 24/7, kids running around outside my windows instead being at school, people all around the neighbourhood doing reconstructions of their apartments because they finally have time for it... Silence is the best music there is.

Being able to see my family

Doctors and Nurses (m/f/d). The (German) health system in general...

Hearing more the sounds of nature

People taking the time out of their day to help others get the food and supplies they need during covid. I know it sounds kind of cliche' and cheesy, but it's the only thing I could think of that was positive.

Simple things like meeting up with friends and family.

Sunday dinners. Sunday dinners are a huge deal for my family and we used to get together every Sunday and eat and just hang out and talk.
We didn't have them for over a year and now that most of us are vaccinated and the weather is nicer, we can have Sunday dinners again (mostly outdoors) or in an indoor/outdoor space. It wonderful to be able to get together with my brothers and SILs and their hell spawn and get caught up.

My cat. Ever since we got Norman I have been happier than never before

My friends, family and my iPad (it’s the only reason how I survived quarantine)

Netflix.

This might sound self-centered but my ability to be alone and self-sufficient for lengthy periods of time.
I do however appreciate having my job all through the pandemic. I've seen many co-workers in debt because they were laid-off or had reduced salaries.

A certain company beginning with A for the home deliveries of moggy biscuits when my usual supermarkets couldn’t.

But a big thank you to all the lovely delivery people who worked very hard during the pandemic.

Having a supportive work environment that values what I do for them. First time I've ever had bosses (yes plural) this encouraging and I love them for it.

My awesome online friend group.

Being alone.
